Sight Seeing with Capt Anthony
2 Hr – Sunset Boat Cruise on March 8, 2025

St. Augustine is a very beautiful and peaceful place to visit with your family. We took the opportunity to book a sightseeing tour with Captain Anthony to see the historic beauty from the Bayfront. The views were spectacular and all of us had a wonderful time on the boat. Booking a private sightseeing charter we the best move for us, as we got to enjoy our time together without the noisy crowds and distractions found on other boats. Anthony has a perfect boat for our family. He was very professional. We were able to bring our own wine (San Sebastian Winery, Vintners Red) with us to enjoy the time as we toured the Bayfront of the Nations Oldest City. Thank you, Anthony for the wonderful time. We hope to do this again next year for the Night of Lights Christmas tour.
